After reviewing this book I purchased a copy for my niece as a Christmas gift. I love the visual appeal and hope that the content will compel her to continue to be the beautiful child she is and encourage her walk with the Lord. I hope that it will stir her to pick up the scripture more (KJV) and make honest application of each entry. I will get my grand daughter a copy as soon as she is old enough.

Not only is this an awe inspiring book it is a visually appealing book. It has a leather like cover that makes it feel nice in your hands. The popular burnt orange and teal colors will draw your tween to the book.

Tama Fortner has adapted the original adult version of this book into a very readable form for kids. Each day contains a scripture and then a reading about that scripture that comes from the point of view of Jesus speaking to you. The day's reading is then ended with a suggested passage of scripture to read on your own.

My first thought about this book was how perfectly it would work for family devotions since children and parents share the same devotional themes in each day's readings. In my opinion this would make a great conversation starter over dinner each night.

This would make a wonderful gift for that special occasion for the tweens in your life. I look forward to giving a few copies as gifts to my oldest grand and my niece and nephews.
